Nnwom 110

1 Dawid dwom. Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me Wura se, “Tena me nifa so kosi sɛ mede wʼatamfo bɛyɛ wʼanan ase ntiaso.”

“By David, a psalm.” The Eternal saith unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I place thy enemies as a stool for thy feet.

2 Awurade bɛterɛw wʼahempema dennen mu afi Sion; na wubedi hene wɔ wʼatamfo so.

The staff of thy strength will the Eternal stretch forth out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thy enemies.

3 Wʼasraafo beyi wɔn koma mu da a wobɛkɔ ɔsa. Tumi kronkron bɛyɛ wʼadurade na wo mmabun bɛba wo nkyɛn sɛnea obosu gugu anɔpahema.

Thy people will bring freewill-gifts on the day of thy power, in the ornaments of holiness: as out of the bosom of the morning-dawn so is thine the dew of thy youth.

4 Awurade aka ntam na ɔrensesa nʼadwene: “Woyɛ daapem sɔfo sɛ Melkisedek sɛso.”

The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent of it, Thou shalt be a priest for ever after the order of Malki-zedek.

5 Awurade wɔ wo nifa so; ɔbɛdwerɛw ahemfo wɔ nʼabufuwhyew da no.

The Lord at thy right hand crusheth kings on the day of his wrath.

6 Obebu amanaman atɛn aboaboa awufo ano; na wadwerɛw asodifo a wɔwɔ asase so nyinaa.

He will judge among the nations—there shall be a fulness of corpses—he crusheth heads on a wide-spread land.

7 Ɔbɛnom asuwa a ɛda ɔkwankyɛn mu nsu enti obedi nkonim. Ɔhene no bɛnom asuwa a ɛda ɔkwankyɛn mu nsu, na wanya ahoɔden, na wagyina nkonimdi mu.

From the brook will he drink on the way: therefore will he lift up the head.
